How it works

See how a hazard gets onto the record.

Your documents in, a cited draft, your team’s decision, a second person’s sign-off if you want one, and a brief that shows its work.

1 · Bring what you have

Start with the plans already on your shelf.

Upload the plans, annexes and after-action reports you already have. Hazzard reads every page and keeps each document’s history: replace a plan and the new version waits as a candidate while the old one stays on the record.

2 · Your hazard list

Hazzard suggests. You decide which hazards count.

Every hazard in the taxonomy arrives as a suggestion, with the evidence your documents hold for it. Nothing is on your list until a person includes it, and the list is only established once every hazard has been decided.

3 · The cited draft

The draft is cited. Accepting it is your call.

For each of likelihood, impact and readiness, the model drafts a justification from the facts you kept, and every sentence is footnoted to its page. Accept it, edit it, or write your own. Each accepted version is saved, and you can roll back.

Wildland Fire · Likelihood

Draft · from 3 facts you kept

The county fire district recorded 64 wildland fires from 2010 through 2024, most under one acre; the largest, the 2018 Pine Hollow Fire, burned 1,240 acres.1 The 2022 wildfire protection plan maps 18,400 acres of wildland–urban interface along the western foothills, with about 3,100 homes within half a mile of continuous fuels.2

1 · Pine Hollow Fire After-Action Report, 2018, p. 4

“Between 2010 and 2024 the District responded to 64 wildland fires, the majority of which burned less than one acre. The Pine Hollow Fire of August 2018 burned 1,240 acres.”

4 · The score

A number needs a reason, and a second person if you want one.

A score can’t be set until a justification is accepted. When your number differs from the draft’s suggestion, it needs a line on why, and both go on the record.

Your organization chooses how many approvals a score needs: none, one, two or three. With approvals on, a score is a proposal until someone other than the proposer signs off.

  • Justification accepted. Version 2 is on record for this dimension.

  • Evidence cited. The justification cites 3 sources.

  • Differs from the suggestion. Your score (3/5) differs from the suggested 4/5 — add a line on why, so the record carries your reasoning.

  • Justification is current. No new facts since it was accepted.

“Fuel treatments on 2,300 acres since 2022 lower the likelihood below the suggested 4.”

Deputy chief reviewing — the proposer can’t approve.

5 · The record

Every step is on the record, for good.

Uploads, decisions, accepted drafts, proposals and approvals each write an audit event: who, when, what changed, and what it replaced. Nothing in that history can be edited or deleted.

  • Consultants get scoped access, not your login. A partner grant is read-only, limited to named surfaces, granted when work starts and revoked when it closes. It is not a role, so nobody becomes a member of your organization to do a study.
  • Every consequential action is on the record. Hazard decisions, approvals, uploads, access grants and re-runs all write an audit event. The table is append-only: no update path, no delete path, no exceptions.
  • One document, however many jurisdictions hold it. Documents are addressed by content, so a regional plan shared across member towns is one document with many claims on it. Release the last claim and it is gone; release yours and everyone else's stays.
